There’s still so much we don’t know about how to stop VAW. Our 16 May workshop w/ @planasrodriguez.bsky.social will help — we’re connecting policymakers with researchers conducting rigorous evaluations of VAW programs. If you’re a civil servant working on VAW, join us!

Are #OECD #socialprotection systems doing enough for #gender equality? We find women are consistently less satisfied than men - reflecting not only gender gaps in contribution histories and entitlements, but in perceived hassle costs. Full WP at www.oecd.org/en/publicati...

We’ll be starting up a series in 2025 with speakers working in AI in social programs (for risk prediction, client engagement, improving coverage, etc) — I’ll let you know when we have the details worked out!

New report out. This one was fun! Lots of interesting convos about how population #ageing, #inequalities & changing labour markets will affect #socialprotection in the years ahead — while also looking at newer issues like more men working part-time & green transition. oe.cd/megatrends-2...
